WWVB Receiver Simulator

What do you do on those days when the neighbor fires up his CD ignition fired weedeater and proceeds to hash out any AM signal within hearing distance? And your WWVB receiver sits there flashing its indicator LED like a crazed, randomized strobe? Well, with a second Arduino handy, you build a WWVB simulator and patch its signal in place of the WWVB receiver. So, here's the sketch.
